Climbing in Red Rocks after heavy rain can permanently damage the rock! MORE INFO >>>

The sandstone in Red Rocks is fragile and is very easily damaged when it is wet. Holds rip off and climbs have been and will continue to be permanently damaged due to climbers not respecting this phenomenon. After a heavy storm the rock will remain wet, sometimes for several days. PLEASE DO NOT CLIMB IN RED ROCKS during or after rain. A good rule of thumb is that if the ground near your climb is at all damp (and not powdery dry sand), then do not climb. There are many alternatives (limestone, granite, basalt, and plastic) nearby.

Description

Starts on the left side of wall. Begin off a boulder make hard moves traversing right past two bolts through bulge. Angle eases off above second bolt. Clip third bolt and follow easy rock up. You can place a small cam in horizonals and head far left to anchor atop Seems Like a Butt You may then lower off or rap into gully left of route.

Protection

This route has it's own two bolt anchor. No rap chains. Bring your 2nd up and easy walk off to climbers' left. Good movement on surprisingly good rock. And I most certainly wouldn't call this a sport route. 3 bolts protect the hard moves down low (first 20 feet) and then it's gear from there up. Small cams and a rack of stoppers will do you good.
